Skylar for a girl?

[roziedood]

Do you like it? Honest thoughts please! TIA

"I once read a book where one of the characters was called Schuyler, and I pronounced it in my head as Shoolyer. It was years later that I realised it was Skylar."

You were right first time, if younare in Europe (look at Poirot films).

You've changed to the US version (often found on Internet sound clips as if it were the original or only way to say it).

It'd not a name I'm wild about, but o think it's better on a girl, and spelled Skyla.

Skylar always looksa as if it's missing a 'k'

Reminds me of the space station, Skylab.

Skylar is on of the few "modern names" I like, makes me think of the little girl in wolf of Wall Street that was the first time I heard it.

This name was on my list - love it!!

The actress who played Diana in my all-time favourite Anne of Green Gables adaptation from the 80s was a Schuyler. I'm sure that is no help to you whatsoever but that's what the name automatically makes me think of!

Skyla is the most popular spelling in the UK

I prefer Schuyler.

It’s not my cup of tea. I much prefer Sky.

Prefer jusy Skye

@AuntieStella that's interesting. It was an American book though.

I don't like it sorry. It seems like a name a teenager would think was cool and name their baby it with little thought for the child being an adult one day

I'm afraid I'm not keen on it. I know a 6yo girl called Skyler and the name just doesn't seem to sit comfortably.

Having a 7 year old DD, it just reminds me of Paw Patrol.

Good Will Hunting here and I'd spell it Skyla.

Sorry, not my cup of tea. Skyla especially.

Unless twins 🚹🚺 - call them Skyler and Tyler.

(Don't do that. )

But if Skylar is what you like and you keep coming back to it then go for it. Diff'rent strokes...

"All aboard the Skylar(k)!"

At about 00:48-00:51ish

Skylar and Skyla are truly dreadful names.
